OUR FOES WITHIN.
THE REPTILE HEELERS OF
THE POLITICIANS.
How They Work to Divide Us The
Socialist" Bngbear The BO-
gus Party-OppOsing Hon.
est Politics Object
and Platform.

The development of the labor
movement shows a phaze of political
trickery which was prophesied long
ago. and which is now disturbing
and confusing factor in many cities.
This is the active opposition, within
the ranks of labor organizations, of
a class of reptiles which are known
rs political heelers. In tho long run
they betray themselves if they are
not discovered by the honest, and,
in many instances, heavy witted
members.
1t is notorious that the ranks of
the Knights of Labor, as well as of
other trades and labor organizations,
are honeycombed with the foul be-
ings who for mere temporary per-
sonal gain would betray the interests
of their fellow workmen. And now
that the Labor Party has lifted its
head above the curbstone line, these
dishonest pests are beginning to
show signs of their presence.
The attacks of the capitalistic
press upon the public speakers of the
Labor Party are supplemented in
side the ranks by thinly yelled OPP
position to practical measures from
the creatures of the doodle
parties. and the manipulation Of
platforms TO the extent Of removing
from them the real labor planks is
one of the tactics of these people.
Calculating upon the ignorant
prejudice of the masses, the profes-
sional heeler will denounce any
measure which would be of service
to the workingmen, and correspond
y damage the corrupt party he Sc
cretly serves as "soclalistic;" and in
the past this cry has been quite sue
cessful. But it's getting stale. DIR.
McGlynn, as well as the chairman of
the New York Labor Party have
been denounced as dangerous $50
cialists," and by the tone of the met
ropolitan "great" dailies, it seems
that at least few deluded working
men have actually rallied round the
standard of q so-callcd "Union La
Dor Party" and denounced the good
doctor and his friends for scoriating
a certain agitator from over the sea,
who wants lrish-Americans to con-
tribute money to his agitation, while
at the same time he announces him
self opposed to the Labor Party and
its principles in this country. 1t is
we'll that these men have shown
their colors at this stage of the con-
test. The more cunning of them
will keep quiet till it comes to cleo
ton time. Then more of them will
"give themselves away"
Let the Labor Party and the labor
organizations generally place no con-
fdence in the professions of individ-
uals, but see to it that their move
ment is carried on in accordance
with sound and advanced princi-
pies.
The labor movement will never
be a successful until the land, the
instruments of production (machines,
factories, etc. and transportation
railways, canals, ships, etc. and all
products of labor used as capital be-
come the common property of the
people.
Our platforms and our agitation,
therefore, must conform strictly and
honestly with the great objects We
have view.
Knaves and fools will oppose us.

are, are bound to respect.

Cheeryble Brothers.

Readers OF Nicholas Nickelby" need
not be reminded OF the "Cheeryble
Brothers." says writer in Temple
Bar. The originals were the Messrs.
Grant, whose extensive, if somewhat
eccentric, benevolence was well known;
to whom Dickens was introduced, in
company with Mr.. John Morley, by
Mr.. w. Harrison Ainsworth, at dim
ner given by Mr.. Gilbert Winter in
1858. The survivor of the brothers
used always to put sum of money
in his pocket to give away in the course
OF the day. A clergyman asked him
for a subscription.
"Put your hand in my side pocket
and you shall have all you find in it. :"
The parson did SO and fished up asov-
ereign. You are welcome to it, said
Mr.. Grant, "only mind it is the only
coin have left
He once asked the same clergyman
at dinner what his education cost him
"A matter of 80, ,OCO," was his an
swer.
ppm afraid" said the questioner,
Education is not good investment.
Here you spent 1000 on your edu-
cation, and, as J GU tell me, your cura-
cy is only f15o a year. My education
cost me nothing, and am making a
good many thousand a year. But /
dare say you will get some interest
somewhere else" docking upward);
"and, rs | believe you are doing good,
whenever you are in want OF a couple
of hundred pounds or so, come to my
warehouse and l'll obige YOU"
But they were shrewd men, their
benevolencen twithstanding. Amas-
ter one day wanted some work done
which could only be managed by cer-
tain skilled workman. Unfortunate
~ the man was given to drink. So a
bargain was struck, that, besides his
wages, he should have gin and water
nd libitum.
"Now mind" said the master, "you
promise to drink up what ! first give
you before you touch q drop more"
AS the work went on the man asked
for his gin.
GLOW much will you start with?"
"Six penn'o 'orth."
"Now gin and water, mind you; and
you must drink it all before you drink
again. Hot or cod2"
Cold"
"All right. Here goes. Bring me a
pail OF water"
1t was brought. and into that the
gin was poured. The man was dumb
founded; but he was held to his bar
gain, and the work got done. AS he
went away-sober, OF course, and his
wages in his pocket-he turned round
and faced his employer.
Master" said he, "there's no one
can get the better O. thee but one, and
that's tn ould chap hisself."

Pathetic Incident.


The following incident, SO full oi
pathos and simplicity, teaches it's own
lesson OF kindness and love for the lit
tie ones left fatherless and motherless
on the charities OF the world. 1t hap
pened a few weeks ago in Western
city, where q poor widow had died,
leaving one child, q little lame boy, to
the cold charities of the world. After
his mothers funeral, the little fellow
was taken i'll from the combined re.
suits of grief and neglect, and it was
then evident ,thathe would soon
be united to his only friend.
He was left alone much OF the day,
there being no one who could spare
the time to stay with him. 1t was
often noticed that the voice OF two
persons could be heard in his little
room. But when those in charge en-
tered, he would be alone and appar-
emily asleep.
One day they listened, being quite
sure that no one was with the child,
and they overheard this strange mon
ologue:
"Is you right there, mammal"
eyes, my little boy, is here"
"Was you went away yeti"
u vented back to heaven to tell
God about my little boy"
t'Did you was afraid mammal"
"No my own little boy, cause God
is nicer'n people,
"Did you told him about me nam.
mar"
~ folded him l had a little boy
named Harry,-an'-an' p
There was loud noise OF sobbine
then, and the listener without cried,
too. Presently the child's voice re,
sumed:
"Did you told God to let me come
up there. mammal"
"Yes, my boy; an he said, 'Bimeby,
bimeby.'"
Mamma, Tse-so-tired-an'-an'

There WAS long silence then, brok.

after resolving in their hearts to be
hereafter very patient with the moth.
erless one.
But the next day he went home to
his mother.
"Bimeby" had come.

How Do We Amusc ourselvesq

Why should the workingman be
fired with that ardor for knowledge
which is not expected OF ourselves?
look round among my own acquaint-
ances acd friends, and | declare that
lido not know q single household, ex-
nept where the head OF it is q literary
man, and therefore obliged to be al.
ways studying and learning, in which
the members spend their evenings aft
er the days work III the acquisition
OF new branches OF learning. One may
60 further; even of those who belong
to the learned professions, few indeed
there are who carry in their studies
beyond the point where their knowl-
edge has o marketable value. The
doctor learns his craft as thoroughly
as he can, and, after he has passed,
reads no more than is just necessary
to keep his eyes open to new lights;
the solicitor knows enough law to car
ry on his business, and reads no more.
AS for the schoolmaster-who ever
heard of classical master reading
any more Latin and Greek than he
reads with the boys? and who ever
heard OF mathematical master keep
ing up his knowledge OF the higher
branches, which put him among the
wranglers ofhis year, but are not want.
ed in the school? Even the lads who
have just begun to go into the city,
aud who know very we'll that their
value would be enormously increased
by practical ard real knowledge OF
French, German, or shorthand, will
not take the trouble to acquire it.
Yet. with the knowledge OF all this, we
expect the workingman i'll his hours OF
leisure, and after a day physically ex.
hausting, to sit down and work at
something intellectual. There are,
without doubt, some men so strong
and so avid OF knowledge that they
will do this, but these are not many,
aud they do not long remain working
men.-Walter Besant, in the Contem-
porary Review.

Beecher, Grant, and a Happy
Ifrida

One OF the many anecdotes oi Mr..
Beecher is given by Mr.. Louis A.
Wendt, as follows "The two depart
ed chiefs, the Rev. Henry Ward Beech
er and U. S. Grant, were together at a
public dinner given in Brooklyn not
many years ago, when Mr. Beecher
suddenly looked at his watch and re-
marked that as the time was rapidly
nearing certain hour he would have
to ask the campany to pardon his ear
ly departure as he had a marriage
ceremony to perform. Saying this
Mr.. Beecher arose from the table, and
as he did so General Grant, who had
been sitting next to him, removed a
rosebud from the lapel OF his coat and
handing the flower to Mr.. Beecher,
said: "Will you kindly hand this to
the bride, and give to her and her flu.
ture husband my best wishes?" Mr..
Beecher accepted and fulfilled the trust,
and the bride OF that time still has
the faded flower, and treasures it as a
precious souvenir. ."-Brooklyn Eagle.

The result OF the arbitration that has
representatives OF the knights OF Labor
and the North Chicago Rolling Mill com
pany has been annaunced. The demands
OF the men are conceded almost in their en-
tirety. An advance OF about 0 per cent.
over last year g wages is granted, with time
and a hall while engaged in the dangerous
work OF cleaning tues. Extra help is to
be employed corresponding to the increas-
ed capacity of the mills. The agreement is
retrogressive and will date from Jan. last.
John Jarrett represented the company, w.
II. Muldoon acted on behalf OF the men
and Alderman Wetherel was umpire. The
basis OF settlement will affect the mills at
North Chicago, South Chicago Irondale
Joliet, Hammond and Milwaukee. The
employees in these establishments number
over Is, 900 men.

Persons whose blood is bad, digestion weak
and liver sluggish, are extra,liabe to the attacks
OF malaria disease. The most trihing exposure
may. under such conditions, infect a system
which, if healthy, would resist the miasmatic

malaria in localities where it is prevalent is to
tone and regula te the system by improving veal

A Prize In the Lottery

OF life which is usually unappreciated until
it is lost, perhaps never to return, is health.
What a priceless boon it is, and how we
ought to cherish it, that life may not be a
worthless blank to US. Many OF the dis
eases that flesh is heir to, and which make
life burdensome, such as consumption
(scrofula OF the lungs), and other scrufuIous
and blood diseases, are completely cured
